We have recompiled SA-ldapsearch 1.1.12 with Java 1.7. If you re-download the SA-ldapsearch 1.1.12 (the latest at http://apps.splunk.com/app/1151), then you will get the updated version that works on Java 1.7

I'm having this issue too. I have a support case into Splunk asking about this, but I believe that one of their jars was compiled with a version higher than the current 1.7.0_55 Java version (version 51.0). When extracting some of the jars and looking in their manifest files, I noticed customcommands.jar was compiled by Java version 1.8.0-b132, which I believe is only available on the Oracle site right now and matches as version 52.0 due to some searching around I did.

There's no indication that the app requires Java 8 at this time - at least from what I saw - but I could be wrong and this could be a new requirement.
